When night fell, the entire city of Beijing lit up with lights, lighting up this ancient city.

The sedan chair and carriage stopped one after the other at the door of an ordinary house, in front of which two lanterns were hung, but the red-painted iron door was tightly closed.

Tie Zhu stepped forward with the knife at his waist, came to the red lacquer door, grabbed the knock ring, and knocked a few times in a very regular manner. After a few moments, the man inside opened the door with a cautious appearance.

Yan Hong has been hanging his appetite all the way, but he doesn't know which one Lin Haoran is singing, and whether he will reach out to their Yan family.

As soon as the carriage stopped, he pulled the curtain and jumped down from the carriage, but when he looked up and saw that it was not the majestic Shuntian Mansion in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart.

After Lin Haoran got out of the sedan chair, he watched Yan Hong follow, and walked into this secret mansion.

Yan Hong followed Lin Haoran into the front yard, and there was a faint cry of a baby inside, and he immediately turned his head to look at Lin Haoran happily and asked, "Lord Fu Yin, you didn't detain Lan Daoxing's wife in the mansion, but imprisoned here?" ”

Lin Haoran nodded lightly, but said seriously with a straight face: "Young Master Yan, I won't take people away for you, but don't be impatient, let's talk about this later!" ”

If Lan Daoxing's wife and children are handed over to Yan Hong to take away, things can go smoothly, which is naturally a good thing that complements each other. But if things go wrong, the consequences are not something he can afford.

Lan Daoxing's wife and children did not break the law, but forcibly detained him on the charge of false accusation. If Lan Daoxing's wife and children have an accident outside, then he, the Yin of the Shuntian Mansion, is a careless person's life, and he will definitely be held accountable by the imperial court.

Everything has risks and benefits, although it is very tempting for him to bring down Xu Jie, but it is impossible for him to be involved in it, as the saying goes: a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

After all, his current cards are too beautiful to be suitable for military adventures, and he should do things with the word "stable" at the head, so that he can advance and retreat freely.

Yan Hong's mouth was slightly bitter, knowing that the initiative of the matter was in the hands of the other party, so he had to nod lightly. At this point, he can only take one step at a time.

After all, although Lin Haoran wanted to bring down Xu Jie, he could also choose to endure it, but their Yan family had to take this opportunity to bring down Xu Jie.

At this moment, Shen Yan hurriedly walked over and followed Lin Haoran to the side to say a few private words.

Yan Hong is a veteran on the Fengyue field, although Shen Yan is dressed in men's clothes, he can still distinguish between male and female at a glance. He couldn't help but glance at Lin Haoran more, and he didn't know what kind of relationship the two had.

Lin Haoran has already regarded Shen Yan as her right-hand man, this woman is not only unmatched in the level of autopsy, but also has a great talent for criminal investigation, so many important things will be handed over to her.

After hearing some information, he nodded lightly, walked back to Yan Hong and invited, "Young Master Yan, please!" ”

"Lord Fu Yin, please first!" Yan Hong was no longer the eldest prince of Yan who had no one in his eyes, and raised his hand humbly.

Lin Haoran led Yan Hong to the living room, his heart suddenly moved, but he pointed to the position of the first seat and said seriously: "Yan Gongzi, you sit here!" ”

"My lord, no!" Yan Hong hurriedly refused.

If it had been before, he would have sat in this chair as a matter of course, but now it is no longer what it used to be. Not to mention that he came to ask for someone this time, the identities of the two have already been high-level.

"You sit down first, the official has other intentions!" Lin Haoran shook his head lightly and said very seriously.

"It's better to be respectful!" Yan Hong heard that Lin Haoran had other intentions, so he reluctantly agreed.

It was a very ordinary living room, and although no one had sat here for a long time, the tables and chairs were still clean, and a servant respectfully brought two cups of tea.

Yan Hong looked at this place curiously, but he didn't know if this was Lin Haoran's "private hall" or a friend's house for the time being. It's just that he also knows very well that some things belong to people's privacy and are not suitable for inquiry.

Lin Haoran has already washed away the impatience on his body in the past few years, and waits here slowly with a teacup, it seems that he can wait for a few hours without complaining.

After a while, a woman in a long green dress was ushered into the hall. This woman's appearance is average, but her figure is very hot, no wonder Lan Daoxing is fascinated.

"The folk girl Liu Wan'er has seen Lord Fu Yin!"

The woman was led into the hall, and first glanced at Yan Gongzi, who was sitting on the first seat, in surprise, but chose to salute Lin Haoran, who was sitting next to her.

Lin Haoran chose to let Yan Hong sit in the first seat, originally wanting to confuse Liu Wan'er, but at the moment, he was recognized by the other party at a glance, and asked with a slight surprise: "Have you seen me?" ”

"Yes!" Liu Wan'er seemed very honest and nodded lightly.

Lin Haoran's brows furrowed slightly, but he said with some suspicion: "Where have you seen me?" This official remembers that he has only been to Xiaoxiang Tower a few times, but he has never been to the drunken red mansion in the outer city! ”

"I'm afraid you don't know! The slave family was born in Xiaoxiang Building, and then came to the Drunken Red Mansion! Liu Wan'er explained seriously.

Lin Haoran suddenly realized: "It turns out that you have seen this official in Xiaoxiang Tower!" ”

"I'm lucky enough to see it once!" Liu Wan'er nodded.

Lin Haoran nodded lightly, looked at Liu Wan'er and asked, "Do you know why this mansion is looking for you?" ”

"The slave family doesn't know!" Although Liu Wan'er guessed eight or nine points, she still pretended to be confused.

Lin Haoran looked at Liu Wan'er's eyes, and said directly to the point: "This mansion Yin hopes that you will repair a letter to the family and explain your situation to Lan Daoxing at this moment!" ”

When Yan Hong heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He needed to prove to Lan Daoxing that the person was already in his hands, or that the person was no longer in Xu Jie's hands, and he didn't have to bring people over. If there is such a letter from home, there is no doubt that things can still go smoothly.

After Yan Hong understood Lin Haoran's intentions, he also looked up at Liu Wan'er hopefully, Liu Wan'er faced the eyes of the two, but shook her head lightly and said, "The slave family is illiterate!" ”

This......

Yan Hong's just ignited hope was immediately poured down from his head by a basin of cold water, and reality was ruthlessly extinguished in an instant.

Lin Haoran picked up the teacup, but looked up at Liu Wan'er, and asked word by word: "Liu Wan'er, are you illiterate, or do you not want to write at all?" Or maybe you...... It's not Liu Wan'er at all. ”

As soon as these words came out, Yan Hong's mouth opened slightly again, as if it could accommodate an egg.
